    Toshiba Satellite P750-103 no internal Video

    Hi.

    I believe this is my first new thread on this forum, I've been around for a few years but today I decided to post my problem to see if someone can help.

    I'm wrapping my head around a Toshiba Sat P750-103 that seems to work correctly on external displays but not the internal.

    Tests I've made:
    - I connect a VGA and HDMI display they work correctly but there is no picture in the internal display (it lights up, but no picture).
    - I've replaced the internal LCD cable (the first one I received was bad, it displayed horizontal random lines and other typical cable problems, and the second one does exactly the same as the original)
    - I've tested this display on other notebook that has a cracked display and it works correctly (presently I don't have other display the test the other way around)

    In a normal situation I would replace the VGA chip on the motherboard, but in this case, this notebook has dual graphics card (processor+dedicated) and I haven't been able to get picture even when forcing each one.

    In this dual graphics notebooks, what controls what goes into the displays? Is there a controlling chip that switches from one source to the other?

    I haven't yet come across a processor that is compatible with this one so I could test with a different CPU.

    Any suggestions?

    Cheers.

      Thank you for your suggestion.

      So, the dedicated VGA chip controls what goes to the displays, even when it comes from the CPU VGA?

      I will try the reflow, if it works I can replace the chip.

      Cheers.

        Long time passed...

        Bad luck with the reflow, damaged the board.

        Ordered a replacement board and the notebook is working again.

        Cheers.
